In this fun, hands-on workshop students will learn to master the angklung, a tuned bamboo rattle from Indonesia and then invent original compositions to perform as an orchestra. This is the perfect way to get an insight into the way an orchestra, made up of many instruments and musicians, can work in harmony to create a sound that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Students and teachers alike will be delighted by the skill, energy and passion of Nico and Martin who are outstanding musicians and inspiring educators.

Nico Brown has written, performed and directed music for many theatre companies. A multi-instrumentalist, he has played for recording sessions for film and with many artists including PJ Harvey.

Martin Brunsden plays double bass and singing saw and appears on over 200 recordings. He has worked with literally hundreds of musicians, bands, artists, poets and theatre companies including Sinéad O’Connor.


Note: the 25 March 12.45pm Instant Orchestra workshop is an Opening Parade performance and can only be booked in conjunction with participation in the Opening Parade.



Presented in an association with the Arts Centre, Melbourne. In-kind support from ArtPlay, City of Melbourne.
